Contact your embassy, perhaps someone has alerted them.

This brings up a good point: we all should have a removable label on the back cover, giving our contact information to those who are willing to return it for free or as a REWARD. I have this on my phone as well. I used to have it on my keys. More often than not most people would try to return things if they were given a way. Yes, inside the passport has this, but I move so much it changes often. email is my go to.

Did you not know the USA is the center of the universe?.....according to many Americans.

..."who keeps tabs on your stay?"...hmm......Immigration?

@Mac ********

Specifically what did Ron write that is in violation of Thai law? Not trolling, seriously interested as the OP's questions are mine as well.

Welcome to the 3rd world.

I disagree but try if you want. You are committing fraud when you do and if caught the authorities have every right to deport you and ban you given you show no respect for their laws. Let me guess, you expect visitors in your home country to follow the rules, right?

They want you to prove a negative. Trump University level logic.

I believe international rules limit you to entering nearly any country with 10,000 or more in the local currency that must be reported. In the USA, law enforcement is allowed to confiscate any amount of your funds or property with no evidence or allegation of a crime, it's called asset forfeiture. To get your funds/property returned requires you to prove your funds/property came fro a reputable source so it is incorrect to assert under US criminal law "you are presumed innocent until proven guilty"

Perhaps scrapped for each other citizens, not everybody else.
